KIE 3fORNIX? OKECOmX, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21, 192ST IS PHONE COMPANIES MOID, TO UNITE Pacific Resumes Control of Northwestern lines. COURT ORDER IS ISSUED Judge Bean 'Approves Application in Petition for Modification of Previous Decree. By an order Issued yesterday in federal court, Inf. petition for the modification of a previous decree, the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph company reassumed control of the properties and lines of the North western Long Distance Telephone company, from which it was di vorced in March, 1914. Judge Bean's approval of the application followed the expressed sanction of the interstate commerce commis sion, wihich recently held that such a merger would be in the interest of public service. Under the terms of the telephone merger, as ' set forth in the plain tiff's petition, the Pacific company leases the lines and equipment of the Northwestern company for a period of 15 years, at an annual rental of $34,750, with the additional provision that the lease may be terminated at any time by the out right purchase' of the property, and that in any event, at the termina tion of the lease, the Pacific com pany may acquire ownership upon the payment of $250,000 and the cancellation of the $295,000 debt now owned by the Northwestern company to the lessee. Amalgamation Formerly Ponght. The modification of the order of 1914 is a direct reversal of the gov ernment's attitude at that time, when it was held that the amal gamation of the two lines was in imical to proper competitive service. In 1911 the Pacific company ac quired by purchase the property of its competitor, and operated the two telephone systems jointly for three years. Action to compel an un merger was then Instituted by the government and successfully carried through, the court order requiring that the Pacific company dispose . of its controlling interest in the Northwestern company within 90 days. The purchaser of the securi ties involved was Francis H. Crosby, who thereafter managed the lines of the lesser corporation. In the petition for modification of decree, it was represented that the Northwestern company, despite the advantage of permission to use the long distance exchanges of its competitor, was wholly unable to complete the payment of its indebt edness to the Pacific company, or to increase its revenues to the point where its securities would be at tractive in open market. There was still due the sum of $295,000 from the sale of its securities at the time of the unmerger. Joint Hearlngf-Heia. At a joint hearingof the inter state commerce, commission with the public service commission of Oregon and the department of pub lic work of Washington, these and other facts pertinent to- the petition were presented, with the result that the interstate commerce commission voiced formal approval of the con templated step, holding that it would be of benefit to the patrons of the telephone lines. Recommended by the federal body, as well as approved by the public service officials of the two states concerned, the modification of de cree met with no opposition when brought befcre Judge Bean. brj Madam Bicker ' Bear Madam fUchfet I am appealing: to you for some timely help. I have 2Vi yards black net flouncing embroid ered in gold (29 inches wide). Would you kindly give me a suggestion through The Oregoni&n aa to what material would be appropriate to make it up with? Also what style. Perhaps you could designate some pattern in some of the style magazines. Mrs. P. F. 8., Portland. MRS. p. F. S. With your black net flouncing I would have a long-waisted black satin crepe, slightly fitted la at the waist line and extended in straight line five inches below the natural belt line. The sleeve quite short andi attached to the low shoulder drop, now so popular. The sleeve should also bear the tighter line. Fasten the blouse at back, using the small eatin button. The skirt should measure a yard and five-eighths and six inches from the floor line. Now for the flouncing: There is a most attrac tive way in which it can be used. Hold in one end of your net to a six-inch width, placing it at the un der aide of the blouse four inches from the middle back line and to the right; drape in a garland line, allowing sufficient length to permit an end drop from left hip. I sup pose that one side of your material has the scallop border, the other with the old gold-pecot edged rib bon in the three-quarter inch width. Where the drape begins its descend ing line at the right, place on the blouse edge a whirl of the ribbon, about six inches in diameter. The draped lace is one of the new trims and I am sure you will enjoy your frock If made after this plan. Two and live-eighths yards of satin crepe will be needed. Going Traveling?
